What Truly Moves You

Tried something a little different. Don't mind if the commas are incorrectly placed never been my strong suit. Enjoy.

If you could see sky in it's entirety all day you would see the world differently

Watching the stars, as if they stand still and we rotate towards them

Like the galaxy is an amusement park and our planet is holding us like a Ferris Wheel seat

See as the clouds surround the trees above, like fog, then disperse just the same

On a clear day look above

You can see that the world is round, the curvature is captivating

At first sight it seems like where we stand in this life is an epiphany

A sudden realization that just a slightly different perception of your surroundings

Can alter your state of mind in such a beautiful and peaceful way

Look at our oceans, fierce, clashing, and unforgiving

You'd never know in person that above the clouds you would see just the same

If truly you could witness all this beauty

Even think of the world differently

Would you function any other way than you do now

Could this raw beauty truly do anything for you in any way at all

Probably not

But wouldn't you still want to see it

Replacing this subject of talk changes nothing here

Money, Power, Fear, Love, even Hatred are second place finishers

Curiosity will always be the one controlling your brain

It's beautiful. Everyone is the same. :) People just haven't noticed yet.

This is a remarkable piece, and truly what I expect and hope (due to my own socialization) poetry to sound and feel like. A piece about meaning, the stars and the core psychology of being human. Bravo!
